Summary: strict_acl_vars failures in the unused half of a
conditional
Product: Exim
Version: 4.69
Platform: x86
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: bug
Priority: medium
Component: String expansion
AssignedTo: nigel@exim.org
ReportedBy: anomie@users.sourceforge.net

Created an attachment (id=232)

Patch to disable strict_acl_vars when expanding the unused half of a
conditional

Both of these will give an unknown variable error instead of the expected "ok"
when strict_acl_vars is set:
${if ={0}{1} {$acl_m_unset_variable}{ok}}
${if ={0}{0} {ok}{$acl_m_unset_variable}}

It is counterintuitive that the non-matching result of a conditional can still
cause unknown variable errors when that half has no other side effects. It also
renders the "isset" conditional in my patch to bug #474 rather useless.

The attached patch fixes the issue by turning off strict_acl_vars when
expanding the non-matching result.
